ESE Seminar: “Skin Interfaced Wearable Sweat Biosensors”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

Abstract: The rising research interest in personalized medicine promises to revolutionize traditional medical practices. This presents a tremendous opportunity for developing wearable devices toward predictive analytics and treatment. In this talk, I will introduce our recent advances in developing fully-integrated skin-interfaced flexible biosensors for non-invasive molecular analysis. Such wearable biosensors can continuously, selectively, and accurately […]

ESE Seminar: “Electrical Digestive Engineering”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

Gastrointestinal (GI) problems are the second leading cause for missing work or school after the common cold, giving rise to 10 percent of the reasons a patient visits their physician and costing $142 billion annually.  Although obstructions and infections are easy to diagnose, more than half of GI disorders involve abnormal functioning of the GI […]

ESE Seminar: “Evolutionary Adaptations and Spreading Processes in Complex Networks”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

A common theme among many models for spreading processes in networks is the assumption that the propagating object (e.g., a pathogen, in the context of infectious disease propagation, or a piece of information, in the context of information propagation) is transferred across network nodes without going through any modification. However, in real-life spreading processes, pathogens […]

ESE Grace Hopper Lecture: “Emerging Non-Volatile Ferroelectric Memory”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

Abstract The last decade has seen a remarkable shift in usage and value of semiconductor memory technologies. These changes are driven by the elevation of four particular target applications –(1) mobile multi-media applications, (2) explosive growth in the sheer volume of data that is being created and stored, (3) emphasis from the individual components to […]

ESE Seminar: “Data-driven Decision Making and Estimation in CPS/IoT Networks”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

The modern instantiation of a sensor network is a cyberphysical (CPS) system where CPS subsystems can be interconnected by a shared communication network of limited bandwidth. A common problem in CPS networks is the sensing and communication of spatio-temporal signals. However, there are fundamental differences between estimation (sensing) and communication. For example, the type of […]

ESE Seminar: “New Tools for Better Understanding Social Networks”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

We shall examine in our talk concepts and tools for the analysis of social networks. We shall present in particular YouTube and Twitter. For YouTube, we point at shortcomings in ways to measure audience retention and propose new concepts to better quantify desirable properties. We then present a geo-linguistic analysis of Twitter based on daily […]

ESE Seminar: “Accelerating MRI with Deep Learning”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can be accelerated by sampling below the Shannon-Nyquist rate via compressed sensing techniques. In this talk, I will consider the problem of optimizing the under-sampling pattern in a data-driven fashion, which has been an open problem for over a decade. For a given sparsity constraint, our method optimizes the under-sampling pattern […]
